Eine echte Bierspezialität. Schon im Herbst wird der Maibock mit einer speziellen untergärigen Hefe eingebraut. Danach reift das Bier rund sechs Monate im Lagerkeller. Die lange Reifung verleiht dem rotgoldenen Bier eine tolle Vollmundigkeit. In die Nase stiegen Noten von roten Beere und reifen Früchten sowie ein Hauch Karamell und Honig. Im Antrunk ist eine schöne Süße zu erkennen. Geschmacklich finden sich Honig und Karamell wieder. Das fein ausgewogene Bier hat einen langen Abgang mit einer ganz dezenten Bittere.

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle at the brewpub, 2017 vintage, best before October 2017. Clear, golden amber with a white head. Sweetish, malty and slightly floral aroma of honey, some caramel and hints of straw. Quite sweet, malty and slightly floral taste of honey, caramel, apricot jam and hints of straw, followed by a short, slightly bitter, a bit warming finish. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Okay!

Bottle from SuperBioMarkt, Wuppertal. Grainy smooth nose. The beer starts fresh fruity, very round and deep. Lots of smooth amber malts there, Mai-bock typical aroma, fresh with grainy hints, lots of dry round caramel. Very soft and easy to drink, moderate sweetish, very round and fresh. Fantastic round brew with grainy hints.

0.33l bottle. Clear golden body without any head. Both the aroma and the taste are quite weak. Some notes of grains, bread and some apples. Nothing super bad about it, it’s just too weak for me for a maibock.
